How to reset dojo CheckedMultiSelect

Question

The widget is inside the form, however

form.reset()

does not clear the previously selected values of CheckedMultiSelect.

var list = new CheckedMultiSelect({
    dropDown: true,
    labelText: 'States',
    multiple: true,
    name: 'state',
    onChange: getValues,
    required: false
}, "stateSelect");

I have tried code below but it doesnt work.

list.reset()

Thanks in advance

You can change the value of CheckedMultiSelect via list.set('value',[...]). The selection is updated immediately, when the list is not empty...

To clear the selection, call:

list.set('value',[]);
list._updateSelection();
